Fixing of the control of the fan of my car.

Dear Sir, I need a manual to fix the control of the fans of my car. I have ML 320 2002. The two fans (maybe for the AC, the fans are faced to outside) are always run even the temperature of the motor drop down to ambiant. The Electrician said that the computer (small part of it) must be changed. I don't trust him. Did there a manual for this, or would you help me what is the truth of the problem? my email is [email protected] (work) or [email protected] (personal) you can send to both.
Thank you.
Elias Daoud, Lebanon

If they are not shutting off then it could be a relay under the hood is bad. Change the fan and the air conditioning relay's.

SOURCE: Engine Coolant Temperature Light came on

whats happening is your a/c is putting an extra load on the engine. it happens with any car. that generates extra heat. it is possible that you need your coolant topped off, but chances are that your car would have overheated before if that were the case. what i would recommend is to first check to see if the coolant level is good. if it is, then get the car up to operating temperature and check to see if the cooling fans on your radiator are working. if not, it may be a bad fan, or just a fuse or relay. if that doesnt solve your problem, have the thermostat changed out for a new one. theyre pretty inexpensive. second, if you or someone you know has the know-how, remove the radiator, plug the fittings for the transmission cooler if it has any, and use a power washer to clean the radiator out. sometimes dirt can accumilate there over time and it wont let the heat dissipate properly. a coolant flush wont be bad for your car, but probably wont make your problem go away.

That is a VERY easy radiator.
Loosen radiator drain plug and drain coolant from radiator.
Disconnect cooling fan connectorsRemove upper and lower radiator hoses after marking them to ease installation.
For vehicles equipped with automatic transaxles, disconnect transmission cooler lines at transaxle.
Remove air conditioner condenser fixing bolts and radiator bracket fixing nuts.
Remove the radiator, radiator cooling fan, air conditioning cooling fan and transmission cooler lines from the vehicle as an assembly.
Transfer all necessary parts (fan assemblies, cooler lines, clips, speed nuts, fittings, etc.) to the new radiator.

Ac only gets cool when car is moving

Walk around front and make sure the electric fan kicks on when you turn on the air conditioning.
If the electric fan is not kicking on, the most common failure point is the relay. I have never worked on a fan on an e46, but a quick scan of the forums indicates that on this car, there is no relay but there is some sort of control box attached to the fan that turns on the fan based on a signal from the DME.
The complete fan with control box is very expensive, but one fellow reported fixing his electric fan problem with a new fan motor that he got on eBay.

My fans won't turn, my radiator is spurting and I want to change my radiator my self. What is your suggestion?

If the fans are frozen & won't move then you will need to replace them. However, if they are still capable of moving by you using your hand to just turn them, then you probably have a temperature sensor/fan relay issue. May I suggest that you first identify what is causing the problem before investing in any parts. Then, once you know if it is the fans or the sensor, you'll want to just pressure test the radiator & cooling system to see if there is any leakage. If you only replace the fans & the radiator without fixing another problem, you'll just have to start all over again. To check just the cooling system (from cold engine), fill up the radiator to where it should be, along with the overflow tank to the low line & put the cap back on & start the car long enough to see if there is a leak anywhere. If not, you only need to focus on fixing the problem with the fans. Generally this is the "cooling fan sensor" that mounts near the bottom of the radiator. Some models have the sensor near the thermostat housing, some on the top of the radiator, & some on the bottom of the radiator. A good Haynes manual for that specific car will save you time & trouble with just a simple 5.99 voltage tester.

Good Luck!

Heater only runs on high

Most likely caused by faulty blower fan speed control resistor module.
This unit is usually located in the heater air ducting under the dash ( in the blower fan airflow ) - unplug and remove fixing screws to replace.

Rear climate control fans blowing cold

That sounds to me like your vent "tubing" is disconnected somewhere along the line. I am not sure exactly how it is set up in the vehicle you are driving, but I am certain fixing it will involve taking apart most all of your interior then putting it back together after a 10 minute fix.
